"There will always be poor people in the land. Therefore I command you to be openhanded toward your brothers and toward the poor and needy in your land." (Deuteronomy 15:11)

If God is so omnipotent, why didn't Jesus promise to eliminate poverty altogether? Instead it has always been the richness of our souls and spirits that counts and that is equal in the eyes of God.

From 'caring for the poor and needy' to 'making us more equal'. This is politicans taking divine power into their own hands.

"The social-democratic project, already sinking in Europe and Scandinavia, cannot work here." These are the words of Ron Radosh, whom I disagree with his centrist stand from time to time, but I heartily agree.

I heard it was his coming out of the closet speech.

Just skipping over all of Obama on my daily news that I record early this morning I get an image of Obama sounding like he was touting a speech just like the spiel given of the movie “Hunger Games”.

Most amusing was the comparison of the first wookie to Romulans, extremely accurate!

Obama is a trained professional liar. Ignore everything he says and fight everything he tries to implement.

This big lie from Obama:

He also vigorously defended social safety-net programs, including Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. GOP leaders have proposed cutting the programs in recent budget negotiations, and some Democrats have worried that Mr. Obama would agree, given that he has said he is open to such changes as part of a broad deficit-reduction deal that includes tax increases.

"These things do not sap our initiative,'' Mr. Obama said of the three programs. "They strengthen us. They do not make us a nation of takers; they free us to take the risks that make this country great."

First, the three programs have become a cash cow for takers, documented. Second, Risk-taking is what makes capitalism function, and giving out secure government assistance is not risk-taking, but the very opposite thereof. Those on government handouts are NOT going to leave that behind to take the risk of dealing with a boss, sorry coworkers, difficult customers and real bills. Third, "...these things..." do sap initiative as I posted yesterday that welfare recipients would ask school principals why they wanted their sons and daughters to study and work when the welfare takers "...didn't do shit...." in their own words and still received benefits. These programs are very quickly making American ungreat.
